    I had a weeper yesterday. My husband finally told an old friend about my BC and his wife got on the phone, insisted on talking to me and burst into tears. So I was comforting her. I didn't really mind, she's a good woman, but a wee part of me was "really?!"

    hmmmm...yep.  Some people right?  Funny as, I just this minute got a text from a family member to tell me that Olivia Newton John's cancer is back after 25yrs! Like I hadn't heard.  Good lord help me.  I haven't responded to the text as I am not quite sure how to answer it,

    It's obviously urgent then - you'd better get on your best mate, ONJ to commiserate.

    When I  first started doing yoga, the yoga instructor told me that "bad posture" causes cancer because your bone marrow cannot produce red blood cells properly. My oncologist was very impressed.

    When you tell someone the statistics about BRAC genes being passed from mother to daughter and they proceed to tell you that “oh you and your daughters have probably got it then!”
